Can you fkers arguing about immigration fk out out this thread. You are annoying the fk out of me. This is not a political soapbox to argue from!
Red card. It's perfectly reasonable that that would annoy you, this thread is for things that annoy you, beyond reason.Hidden pissing charges. I have a contract in front of me to buy out my wife's lease Tiguan. It says $15k +$350 fees. Imagine my horror when I was told I would have to pay $18k to own it. This includes a $790 admin charge. I said that is a lot of fking admin! Called VW direct instead of the dealer and was given $16.5k inc tax. Done.
This is a car that was $24,517 new and has depreciated to $15425 in 3 years and 5k miles. For the lease haters, in the US you pay tax on buying new or used cars (even privately). By leasing I paid a low finance charge of $116 total and am now paying the tax on $15k and not $24k. This saves $600 on the total cost of purchase even when you include the finance charges.

but rather based on how they look, which is in essence what's being suggested.
North/Central African youths out for an easy life at our expense look entirely different from a Syrian family fleeing persecution Munter said:
That's no way to behave.
Seems fine to me. Genuine asylum seekers let in, welfare seekers not. Based on a few factors, colour of skin being an obvious one..Munter said:

I most certainly am. To say that I am not is in itself a non-fact.
Perhaps some of the other posters would like to chip in on this one? I'm off home so we can pick this up tomorrow, try not to end your response with an ellipsis this time.

Yet if they want to build a mosque: http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-news...
I've never seen any protests against a new synagogue or church.
Things that annoy you beyond reason...? People who refuse to see the bleedin obvious.

Plenty of mosques in the UK and more being built all the time.

Last month I attended a meeting at which a town planner was present. For almost an hour I was presented with an explanation of the problems facing our little town and his ideas for tackling them. His far-reaching proposals included a list of on-trend themes such as sustainable development, integrated public transport and increased accessibility for bicycles. For the best part of sixty minutes he sat, wearing bellend fking sandals, and evangelically outlined the proposals he would be doing his level fking best to force through.
Though the town has existed for hundreds of years, weathering storm, war and recession, this meddlesome little prick has identified how it should be improved. It was, in fact, doing perfectly well by itself, thank you very much. So who is he? Long-standing resident perhaps? Family with history in the area? Nope – he rocked up here two fking years ago from the other end of the country. If the interfering little st didn’t like what he found when he got here, why didn’t he fk right off back whence he came?
Tonight, I think I’ll pop next door and rearrange the furniture. Oh, hang on, no I won’t, because that would be the complete fking height of absolute fking cheek.
I fking, fking, fking, fking, fkING hate people who do this.
I FU@KING despise with every fiber of my body people who interfere with places they do not live or originate from. My town Raunds has had 700 houses foisted upon us, no one from the town and no one from the district council wanted them but the county council and that fat little C@NT Eric pickles OK'ed them on the basis that they would be good for the town. So yep a load more fking londoners and general st and driftwood can come and live here, driving up house prices so the locals cant afford the houses. Crime, congestion and unemployment will rise, it's all fking good and great oh and some faceless st will be getting a nice fat envelope no doubt. Build houses where they are suitable and there are jobs and the inferstructre and capacity to cope with them. C@NTS ALL OF THEM.

People mawkishly writing "it's dusty in here".
Pull yourselves together.
I have the opposite opinion. Saying "it's dusty in here" is, to me, saying "I'm too emotionally stunted to admit to showing emotion". Pull yourselves together.
The whole "man up" / "pull yourself together" thing just exacerbates it.
The only problem with that approach is that in a small town, if through some quirk of educational progress no-one became qualified to become a town planner, who would do it? Do they have to have no-one, or bring someone in from outside? Maybe no-one locally wants to take a job like that because they'd be having to foist unpopular stuff on people they know and grew up with, rather than random strangers.

Have I missed something here? WTF is "it's dusty in here" supposed to mean? Is this another TW@TISH Americanism we have adopted? Or is it just a general comment on the standard of someones house work? Why can't we just calll a spade a spade nowadays? FML sh!t like this just makes me want to spew.
Speaking of daft euphemisms, what about "sleeping with"? There's all sorts of expressions (and single words) which are much more to the point. Such as fk.marmitemania said:

It's an internet thing. Like "WTF" and "FML", ironically. Also, even more ironically, "spew" is an Americanism.
